Looking at the launchpad bug I see the original complaint was the disk
creation was slow. This is somewhat surprising to me. falloc should be
fast on any mainstream, modern filesystem as it merely has to write
metadata in the FS to reserve the new blocks.  I don't see any report of
what host filesystem was in use when the user saw > 1 minute disk
allocation. It would be worth investigating that aspect more, because my
expectation is that falloc should be negligible in time.
